What Does a HydraFacial® Do, and How Does It Work?
September 15, 2024
No matter how old you are or which skin concerns you want to address, there’s one treatment that can give you real results without the downtime or discomfort of many others. HydraFacial® is a rejuvenation treatment that gives your skin a vibrant glow and erases imperfections over time. It’s so gentle and comfortable that people tend to underestimate what this treatment can achieve.

What Does a HydraFacial® Do, and How Does It Work?
A HydraFacial® uses a three-step process to give your skin everything it needs in a single session. In addition to the basic HydraFacial®, Coolspa offers several levels of this treatment that include other benefits.
What Does a HydraFacial® Do?
HydraFacial® is a versatile treatment that can address many different skin concerns, including:
- Fine lines
- Textural issues
- Mild skin laxity
- Dark spots and sun damage
- Blocked or enlarged pores
- Acne
- Dullness
- Dryness
Over a series of treatments, HydraFacial® brings new skin cells to the surface and exfoliates away old, damaged ones. It also uses targeted serums to target concerns such as hyperpigmentation, signs of aging, and oily skin. Research has shown that it can effectively treat acne without the uncomfortable side effects of other methods.
How Does It Work?
A HydraFacial® has three steps, and all three are comfortable and noninvasive.
- Cleanse and Peel
During this step, your skin receives a deep but gentle cleansing and vacuum extraction that removes debris, dead skin cells, and other impurities.
- Extract and Hydrate
This step uses suction to extract dirt, oil, and blockages from your pores while infusing your skin with deep hydration.
- Fuse and Protect
Your skin is treated with a customized serum developed for your skin’s specific needs while primed to absorb the benefits.

How Often Should I Get One?
How often you get a HydraFacial® depends on your needs and preferences. Some people have a few before an event to look radiant for photos, but you will see optimal results with a session every four to six weeks. This timeline allows the treatment to keep your skin clear and treat textural issues over time.
Will HydraFacial® Work for My Skin?
HydraFacial® is so gentle that almost anyone can enjoy it. However, there are a few limitations: you shouldn’t have one if you’re pregnant, have rosacea, or have an active skin condition or infection. If you have deeper textural issues than HydraFacial® can treat, your provider may recommend a more intensive treatment like Morpheus8 RF microneedling.
What’s Included in a HydraFacial®?
In addition to the components of a basic HydraFacial®, we offer two advanced options:
The Deluxe HydraFacial® also includes LED light therapy and can add a range of other options depending on your needs, boosting your results.
The Platinum HydraFacial® includes all the benefits above in addition to a lymphatic drainage massage to de-puff and rejuvenate your face.
